Xperia P wifi issue

[#1]

Several days ago I bought new Xperia P. Since begining I found to unstable wifi connection in home network. Previous Samsung W without any problems.

This issue come irregulary in time and without any context to signal strenght. When trying to find out, I only found there is a problem to obtain IP address from router. On router log there is MAC of phone visible an noted as associated or ressociated, regard the situation. All widget I tryed show status connected and original phone aplication was in Limitated connection with IP addres made internal without router. Seem to be matter of obtaining or renewing IP address. Router is set up to DHCP and wireless is encrypted to WPA-PSK. There was no change in other encryption nor fully opened wireless with no protection or encrypting. Still the same situation. Does anybody similiar problem or any adwise how to fix it up ?

Try to update the router firmware and if it still won't work check if you can get full Internet access connecting to another router. If that won't work try a software repair via PC Companion.

I had a similar problem with a galaxy Next and a dlink router

All my phones conncted to router, except Next.

Try to open your network (no encryption) temporarily. Also it could be an ip conflict, try to connect when every other device is not connected.

I fixed my problem with a reset of router settings

Hope this help

I already updated firmware. It seems to be a problem of this router. I have tryied on another for routers and without any issue.
